Stream music, TV, and more

Enjoy it all on one system. Add streaming services to the app to play a relaxing Spotify playlist before bed or change the mood of your weekend with a new album on Apple Music. Connect your home theatre products to your TV to hear every detail whilst catching up on shows or rewatching the classics.

Pair two speakers for stunningly detailed stereo sound.

Build a surround sound system for immersive entertainment.

Easily move the music all around your home and beyond.

Group speakers in different rooms

Connect two or more speakers together so they play in sync. Group the speakers in your bedroom and kitchen so that your morning playlist is already playing when you start making breakfast, or connect the rest of your system to your home theatre so that everyone can enjoy the big match even from another room.
